Luigi's Mansion 3 |OT| ScareBNB

Lack of option in games made me dual axis. I can control anything now, though a part of me still loves the inverted option, especually if we are talking about a vacuum.
Yeah I noticed that as well, in the scene where you rescue
Egad. And Luigi says something like.. What about Mario. And I'm like, dude, what about the toad family and Peach my guy?
Is there a way to disable the map on the top right? I'd love if it was dynamic and only appears when I press a button or something.
So I guess the controls can't be inverted. Bummer. Guess I wont be playing this until a patch is out.
Just wanna jump in and say that the fact we don't have a cool spooky Luigi Mansion theme for Switch is very sad.
Reached floor 7 after five hours. Easily better than Dark Moon and if it keeps, will surpass the original for me.
and yes, it's stunning. Love the boo theme too.

Those cracks in the walls that you can look through, anything to it or just that?
Also on floor 5, there's a secret door, you can see it when you walk past it, how to get it in? Probably a backtracking thing, but still, can't hurt to ask.

Not having inverted Y axis is seriously holding me back on buying the game. I can't play non-inverted.
That's why I'm using motion aiming and horizontal only right stick
To the people finding hard to understand why we prefer inverted y axis:
Because is the most natural way to look/Aim on a 3D space. Imagine your head being a control stick/camera attached to a pole. To aim downward yo tilt the stick/camera forward and to aim upward you tilt the stick/camera backward.

Once you get the controls down (don't turn, horizontal only, use the bumpers for the plunger + flashlights) this is easily the best game in the series. It's shocking how good it is, really.
they are showing you hints of secret areas you can access if you're clever enough to figure out how to get there.
the secret door on 5F is
revealed when you plunger the vending machine
Pre ordered from target a while ago and they just shipped it says I won't get it till next week. This is why we can't lose GameStop!
Welp, I started playing the game last night....
AND DAMMIT I WANNA PLAY MORE OF IT NOW.
-The animation is Disney/Pixar level here. No really I fucking mean it, this is easily the most charming and expressive animation ever put into a Nintendo game. Next Level Games literally lives up to their name here.
-The Polterpup is one of the cutest goddamn dogs ever put in a video game. Actually, he's one of the cutest dogs in any medium. I adore him so much and I hope we see him more in the bigger Mario universe (Smash, Mario Kart, official Super Mario games, that kind of stuff).
-What little I played of the first section is really fun. I really enjoy the new ghost hunting mechanics involving you swinging the ghost back and forth on the ground. Brings something new to the table.
-Aiming with the right stick actually takes some getting used to. I'm so used to Dark Moon's gameplay that this feels off. Nothing wrong with it imo, I just need to get used to it.
Overall, it's absolutely fantastic and I can't wait to play more.

Just started the game!
It already affirms that Mario is a huge douche and won't help out the toads with a single piece of luggage

This is the first Switch game that made me think, graphically, "oh this is an XB1/PS4 title maybe?"
Crazy good visuals and lighting.

Nice! Yeah I'm making it a habit to try everything in a room.
Really enjoying the game, and as reviews said it's very charming for sure. I wish I had bought Luigi's Mansion 2 back when I still had a 3DS.
I turned off E. Gadd hints in the menu, so why is he still telling me to grab the key in 3F every five seconds? Is there a way to permanently turn this old fool off sop I can explore at my leisure?
Great game so far otherwise, but man that's annoying.
EDIT: Grabbing the key made him finally stop talking. Crisis adverted.

The use of music on the floor 5 boss was top tier.
up to floor 7 and that'll do for now, this right now is like LM2 without that games issues that kept me from loving it

Anybody get the pre-order points? I don't see it yet and the announcement said the rest were supposed to be paid out today.

This image is somewhat misleading. It's an accurate representation of the concept for vertical movement, but someone like myself for instance, still use traditional left and right on the stick to move the camera horizontally. In order for this image to work as full justification, I'd have to invert both the vertical and horizontal axis.
The blower option of the vacuum cleaner, I've barely used it and I'm not really sure what its purpose is?
Man...just finished floor 6 and so far this game has just been utterly spectacular. It's surpassed my expectations. I'm so happy with how good ghost hunting feels, was really worried about that. But you don't lose that much from LM1, and the slam is really satisfying. Especially because most boss fights are designed so well where when you finally get to slam them it's a very FUCK YEAH moment.
Also really surprised how much I dig the music. It's been pretty great so far.

Came here to see if someone knew how to play inverted, didn't take me long to see others have already discussed this. I've played about an hour, and just can't get used to the lack of being able to invert the y axis.
Probably will never play again unless they patch. Such a bummer. I know inverted is getting more uncommon, but it seems crazy that a game would flat out not support it. Heck, Nintendo is the entire reason I'm broken and have to play inverted to begin with (Snes Star Fox).

Damn the controls being messed up really hurt this from being such a joy to play. Making it horizontal only means your missing a lot of out of reach treats. I'm going to have to learn to stick with it unless there's a patch though.
Other than that I've just unlocked E Gadd and put it down for the night. I really want to hear the theme to the original Luigis Mansion here and so far I'm disappointed. Humming it in my head to offset it slightly.
Lots to interact with and nice presentation. Just wow at the controls unfortunately.

Wow erm, those rewards are pretty bad and not really worth going for.
The game just continues to disappoint. 😕
Just started this, so not much to say just yet, but: I am irrationally delighted at the 5/4 arrangement of the Luigi's Mansion theme in E. Gadd's pocket laboratory.
Still haven't gotten the controls quite the way I want them; I wish there was more configurability. Earlier I was playing handheld, but now that I've switched to detached Joy-Cons I find that I like the idea of imitating Splatoon (horizontal lock on the stick, high gyro sensitivity) but that I instinctively expect gyro to work on the horizontal axis as well, and it's just not there.
Glad I checked the settings, though, so I could turn off hints before I ever received any hints.

Stuck at this knee-high ledge with a key on it on 8F right at the elevator, I'm sure I'm missing something dumb to get me up on it but it really is kind of goofy that Luigi, Super Luigi, the Jumpman's brother is landlocked and can't even just climb up a knee-high ledge.
Problem is that should have been the default control scheme or a tutorial should have popped up asking if you would like to try the alternative control scheme. Allot of people wont realize to change those two options + use bumpers.
Something very useful to know: Strobulb is mapped to R as well as A, which means it's actually possible to move the R-stick while charging the flash.
I found myself craving a button mapping like that as soon as I faced my first ghosts, and I'm glad to see that one is already baked in.

I had a good laugh at that too said out loud *either there was a scuffle or Mario is a complete slob.*
